Shop awnings and blinds in Northumberland

Before ordering an awning in Northumberland, we check the height above the pavement and what the highway or roads authority expects.

Striped traditional awning over a bakery window

A traditional blind can suit a period building, so owners in the North East can ask us to match a fascia box to their Northumberland premises. A motor with a wind sensor suits staff who are too busy to watch the weather, and owners across the North East can add one to a Northumberland order.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Northumberland?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Northumberland, including Alnwick, Ashington, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Blyth.

Can I put my logo on an awning?

Yes. Logos and names can be printed or sign-written on the cover or valance. In England, advertising on an awning can count as a sign, so check the advertisement rules, particularly on listed buildings or in conservation areas. We send a proof before the fabric is made up.

How high must an awning be above the pavement?

It depends on the highway authority, but 2.3 to 2.75 m above the pavement is common, measured to the lowest point of the awning or valance. Most also want a clear gap from the kerb. We check with your authority before we set the position.

Do I need planning permission for a shop awning?

Often yes in England, since an awning can change the appearance of the frontage, and lettering on it can need advertisement consent. Highway approval can also apply. Listed buildings need extra consent, and rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we check before ordering.
